A bit mixed.
Mostly comfortable. A bit cold. Not sure if 6 people would be comfortable. Paying for electric at the end is unusual. Remote and very rural. Beautiful surroundings. One of the showers is really good. Kitchen is mostly well equipped. Not sure if i would stay there again. Local bar is really friendly. Good for local touring.

Idyllic cottage, gorgeous location
This cottage was absolutely lovely. The location is absolutely gorgeous, and the drive to and from the cottage every day was wonderful. The cottage itself was very clean and cute. We were out exploring most of the days we stayed there, but returning to the cottage every night felt so relaxing and cozy. It was our favorite part of the trip! Lots to do nearby--killarney national park, horseback riding, pubs and shops in kenmare....would highly recommend! Josephine was a great hostess--easy to communicate with and stopped by the cottage to greet us.

lovely property, with a lovely host
Lovely isolated cottage which has been updated to a high standard. The host is charming and the location is very very quiet, all you can hear are the birds, even the nearby cows do not moo loudly, ideal for a relaxing stay.

Great location, adorable house
We only stayed for two nights, but the house was very clean. Even though you have to pay extra for Oil and Electricity it was only about 12 euro, so with the lower costs of renting I found this very fair. It was in a great location close to Sneem and to Kelmare. If we come back to the Ring of Kerry area I would book here again. Thank you again for having us. :)

Spacious clean cottage in idyllic setting.
The cottage is completely on its own in a mountainous landscape, (except for one or two isolated cottages dotted about). It's perfectly situated to explore the Kerry coast and mountains- don't miss the Ballagbeama Gap. There isn't a garden but a gravel surround which you could kick a ball in or sit outside admiring the view. Owner very helpful and responded quickly when the immersion heater broke down. Probably our favourite cottage ever!

We loved every minute of this home. Total privacy and comfort galore in this beautiful countryside location of Ireland. Easy to drive to The Ring of Kerry and National Park.

Lovely Cosy Quiet Cottage in a Beautiful part of the World
The cottage has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen/utility room and a snug so there was plenty of room for just the two of us. A lot of information about the area was available in the cottage when we arrived. The owner Josephine visited us after we arrived to explain things and to suggest places to eat and visit while we were there. This was great. The kitchen had everything needed to cook meals which was good as the nearest town was around twenty minutes away. Beds were a little hard for us and could have been better. We used this place as a base to visit surrounding areas which worked perfectly for us.
